You do not need to make a dist. Add a CONTRIBUTING file to the repo that says "please do not work on this code. we will rewrite it from scratch, so please come back in a few weeks or wait for AnyData2 on CPAN"

But the problem is still present then ;) I created http://mojo.perl-services.de and I noticed a problem with Mojolicious::Plugin::AnyData (because of a problem in AnyData). That's why I wanted to work on the AnyData issue. It had nothing to do with this challenge.

the question is, if this is a challenge, we need to know who complete “in time”, and for someone that joins in the last day, it can get complicated to complete in that same month. Specially if they get “perl” as the dist.
